remember, winner gets a green rep!!!
 
I have a feeling I am gonna have a personal high this weekend in years, and it will be by FAR, the lowest run posted. LOL!

And this table at this house is far too hard, wish I was on the Diamond Pro...

At least this forces me to work on it this weekend.

I was gonna take my attempts last night in the accu-stats arena but the production value was too good for my game !!

I am at a block party getting my drink on.

I will do my attempts tomorrow hopefully !!

Good luck everyone !

Top I have so far is a 20 ball run. At least I made it into the second rack.

I am heading out to a pool party at Shark City tonight with some friends. PLaying from 9pm-2am, unfortunately, that will most likely all be "Social Pool" consisting of 8-ball, doubles, and drinking. If I get lucky, maybe I'll find someone that can at least try 9-ball.

I'll give the run challenge some more effort tomorrow. As I suspected, this challenge is at least forcing me to make conscious efforts at runs.

I'll update ya tomorrow.

Have a great evening all! I'm off to free pool and an open bar... :)
(guaranteed to be no 14.1 games there tonight)
 
I had a couple of mid 20s at a straight pool tournament today but no video so it doesn't count. Hopefully a little tomorrow.
 
Maybe Tomorrow

Well, I played for one hour today and had a big 50 on the dot.
Tomorrow, I know that I have at least 3 to 4 hours to play. Hopefully, I can do a little better. Good luck to everyone.
 
I had a bunch of 15s tonight, ZERO 16+.... LOL!

But I ran a few games of 8 against my opponents. So there is that. Hopefully, I'll have some time this afternoon to work on breaking into that second rack and continuing.
 
I was going to resign from the competition, well maybe the word is surrender.
My basement is at least 95-100 with 95% humidity, Yesterday the temp right down the road at field level, Yankee Stadium was 112. Brutal far baseball, impossible for pool. I did manage a few 30's but didn't think to save any of them. After a few beads of sweat dripped on the table I kind of gave up.
anyway good luck everyone, I will post results tmrw.
The early lead goes to Jesse with a 69.

18

Big 18 a few minutes ago.

then mowed the lawn and snuck another inning in. 15 and made another and scratched. Not much open but if I hadn't scratched woulda had a good secondary break shot.

Now off to some stores with the bride and maybe a little later.

lol. my garage was almost as hot and I was sweating up a storm and started thinking about how many calories you could burn playing nonstop in that heat two hours a day. probably not the best idea, but I like a painful dangerous challenge.

I know I resigned but i was inspired by Jesse's video, fwiw if that was my run it would have ended at 3. there is no way I make that jacked up shot into the far corner. nice shot.
anyway I went back down there and managed a 57.

You better go to the party. Pool is over-rated. No need to try again.
